Milky Way Galaxy

At night the sky 
Becomes an entire new world 
To the human eye

The moon 
Sometimes as round as a soccer ball 
Appears as it begins to get dark

A million tiny bright lights
Called stars 
Appear like specks of dust 
Out of nowhere 

And soon I am outdoors 
Observing the planets like mars 
And also the Milky Way galaxy 
With my trustworthy telescope
